Chemical Structure

Trans-Beta-Farnesene CAS 18794-84-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Trans-Beta-Farnesene is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Trans-Beta-Farnesene (CAS 18794-84-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H24 and a molecular weight of 204.35 g/mol.

Trans-Beta-Farnesene (C15H24) contains an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
